As she was reading she noticed her old high school crush come in go right to the poetry section and pick up one of her favorite poetry books. He made his way over to her and sat right in from her. She wondered if he would remember her she adored him from afar they hung out in different groups Audree was part of the quiet nerdy nose in their books group while Jake was apart of the to cool for school oh so handsome should be an Abercrombie model group. Seth would often taunt her during their lunch hour about her little crush she had on Jake and she had always played it off that Seth was just jealous of Jake and the short time that he and Audree had to spend together working on their senior science project. Now here she was just sitting two feet away from him and was really to take in the fact that she indeed had a crush on him. He has handsomely dark hair and an illuminating smile. She could smell his cologne and it was haunting like a love potion or something.  Then he spoke "Hey, Audree? Is that you?? Audree Tanner??" she snapped out of her trance "Audree Hinders actually.. and you are?" playing coy was one of her more awkward traits she often resorted to this in hopes to help her back out of awkward situations should that arise.  "Come one you remember me! Jake Hinckley!! We did our senior science project together you know the effects of soda vs. water?" of course I remember you how could I have forget you she thought to herself. " Ah yes Jake how are you?" he told her he was great they talked about what he had been up to. He was in his final years of med school and he was going to do his residency at Wilson memorial hospital. He has been single since high school with a few "flings" as he called them here and there but nothing to serious he wanted to be completely done with school before he embarked on the wonderful world of relationships. She told him briefly of her split with Seth and didn't spend much time either on telling him about Trevor she told him she too was focusing on herself and so far so good. They hadn't realized it but they had been talking for fours hours when the Liberian told them  that she was closing up. Not wanting to end their conversation Jake had asked her if she wanted to have dinner with him at the local diner she agreed without hesitation and so it went from there. They fell madly in love...
